The specialist brain injury solicitors at Hudgell Solicitors understand how an injury to your brain can dramatically change your life, and the lives of those close to you.

We know how to access the very best care and support, through our close network of medical experts and care managers, always placing rehabilitationat the heart of our work – a commitment which is vital in supporting people following brain injury to make the best possible recovery.

We recognise no amount of compensation can ever turn back the clock for people who have suffered a traumatic brain injury so, our focus is on securing:

Access to the best treatment for those we represent, and ongoing support for both they and their loved ones

The best possible damages settlement at all times, helping ensure finances are not an extra worry during difficult times.

We work hard to get our clients back to the best possible health and lifestyle as quickly as possible.

Specialist solicitors to guide you and your family

Our senior solicitors each have over 25 years of experience of supporting individuals and families both in the immediate aftermath of traumatic brain injury and in guiding them through a structured and well planned rehabilitation programme, well beyond their legal claim.

Our solicitors, a number of whom worked within the NHS before commencing their legal careers, oversee many brain rehabilitation programmes.

All are skilled in helping families from the earliest hospital bedside visit through to discharge and when back home, where support is arranged until it is no longer required.

Of course, some of our clients have a lifetime of needs following their injury and we do not settle legal claims without ensuring provision is made for those.

We understand that what has happened to you and your family is very personal and we will be with you every step of the way on your road to recovery, providing a personalised support package which will be aligned to national codes of best practice with regards to brain injury rehabilitation.

We also have an excellent track record of securing significant interim compensation payments – often before any liability for the injuries caused has been admitted – to pay for the earliest possible medical treatment, counselling and other rehabilitative care, including adaptions required at home.
